Recommended Rogue Feats in BG3
Here are eight exceptional feats to consider for your BG3 Rogue:
Sharpshooter:
Transform your Rogue into a deadly ranged combatant. Ignore cover, extend your attack range, and boost damage by 10 (at the cost of a -5 penalty to hit). Ideal for maximizing long-range effectiveness.
Skilled:
Unleash unparalleled versatility. Gain proficiency in three skills or tools of your choice. Become a master of stealth, acrobatics, and lockpicking, or tailor your skills to your preferred playstyle.
Athlete:
Enhance agility and finesse. Reduce movement costs for climbing and rising from prone positions, and execute running jumps with ease. A +1 bonus to Strength or Dexterity adds further benefit.
Tough:
While evasion is key, BG3 presents unavoidable damage. Tough significantly increases your hit points, bolstering survivability and allowing your Rogue to dish out more damage.
Mobile:
Perfect for hit-and-run tactics. Move freely after attacking, allowing for swift escapes and strategic positioning in both melee and ranged encounters.
Alert:
Avoid the dangers of surprise attacks. Gain advantage on initiative rolls and negate the surprised condition, crucial for a Rogue's survival.
Dungeon Delver:
Navigate BG3's treacherous environments with ease. Detect traps and disarm them efficiently, and unlock chests and doors effortlessly. A boon for out-of-combat situations.
Crossbow Expert:
Unleash devastating crossbow attacks. Use your crossbow for sneak attacks at close range, and enhance sneak attack damage at all ranges. A stylish and powerful choice.
Lucky:
A universally beneficial feat. Three Luck Points allow for advantage on attacks, ability checks, and saving throws, or force enemy attack reroles. Refreshes after a long rest.
Savage Attacker:
Ideal for melee Rogues. Roll damage dice twice and use the higher result, significantly boosting melee attack damage, especially when combined with sneak attacks.
These feats will transform your Rogue into a formidable force in Baldur's Gate 3. Experiment and find the combination that best suits your playstyle.
